SKNlogic C15 Booster

Did you know that a Vitamin C serum can help fight off the signs of aging and keep your skin looking younger? The SKNlogic C15 Booster does just that.

The benefits of Vitamin C for your skin

The benefits of vitamin c

Vitamin C, the sunshine friend of the skin, packs a powerful punch, like a protective shield.

  • Vitamin C fights free radical damage: This antioxidant warrior shields skin from environmental aggressors like pollution and UV rays, preventing premature aging, like a sturdy wall against invaders.
  • It boosts collagen synthesis: Vitamin C joins the collagen-building party, plumping up your skin like a skilled builder adding reinforcements. It promotes collagen production, which has the potential to thicken the dermis, diminish fine lines, and is essential for firm, youthful skin.
  • It brightens and evens skin tone: Vitamin C tackles dullness and fades hyperpigmentation, revealing a luminous complexion.
  • Vitamin C helps to repair damage from sun exposure and collagen loss by encouraging healthy cell turnover and regeneration.

This concentrated booster with 15% pure vitamin C dramatically brightens uneven skin while improving the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

This powerhouse serum also contains Vitamin E & Ferulic Acid. Why?

Imagine vitamin C as a valiant warrior battling free radicals, harmful molecules that damage skin cells and contribute to aging. Vitamin E, another potent antioxidant, steps in as a loyal shield bearer, absorbing free radicals before they can reach vitamin C and deplete its power. Think of it like vitamin E taking the hits so vitamin C can stay strong and continue its fight.

Another nemesis of vitamin C is its fragile nature. It’s easily degraded by light and air, reducing its potency before it even gets a chance to work its magic. Enter ferulic acid, a plant-based antioxidant with a superpower – it stabilizes vitamin C, extending its lifespan and maximizing its effectiveness. Picture ferulic acid as a force field surrounding vitamin C, protecting it from environmental enemies and ensuring it reaches its full potential.

This serum sounds amazing… and it is. I’ve been using the SKNlogic C15 Booster for about 6 weeks now and I am super impressed. A little goes along way, it applies beautifully and it feels great on my super sensitive skin. What I didn’t expect was the calming effect it has on my skin. This serum gets extra marks for that. I’ve noticed that my skin is looking a lot brighter lately, and I’m loving it. The SKNlogic C15 Booster has found a permanent spot in my skincare routine.

Introducing the new E45 Face Care Range

I don’t know how change of season affects your skin, but mine hates it. The best way to calm my enraged skin during this time, is to go back to basics and use gentle and soothing products. The new E45 face care range landed in SA a couple of months ago and I couldn’t wait to find out if the range was what my skin needed.

Introducing the new E45 face care range

My skin has quite extreme reactions to change of season. My skin goes from healthy and happy to patchy, irritated, enflamed and itchy. It’s not pretty. When this happens, I try to simplify my skin care routine as much as possible.

When I tell you I ripped open the package with giddy excitement when the courier dropped it off, would be an understatement. My face was particularly angry that day and I rushed to the bathroom to wash my face…

E45 face care range

What a soothing experience. Here are my thoughts on the new E45 face care range for dry, sensitive, and eczema-prone skin.

The E45 Daily Protect Moisturiser 

The E45 Daily Protect Moisturiser with SPF 30, UVA and UVB filters is an intensely hydrating cream. It feels very light and soothing and leaves the skin feeling soft and supple. It is designed for dry and sensitive skin, but as it’s lighter than I expected, it may work well when my skin gets oilier in summer too.  The cream helps to restore your natural skin barrier, and it will not clog your pores. Win! It’s also suitable for eczema prone skin.

The E45 Face Night Cream

The E45 Night Cream is also a winner.  It deeply moisturises and my skin sighs with relief when I apply it after a day of exposure to the elements. This cream is formulated with five deeply nourishing oils and it’s rich in antioxidants. It’s deeply nourishing and soothing. It hydrates, softens, and promotes skin recovery from daily damage.

The E45 Face Foaming Cleanser

I was pleasantly surprised by the effectiveness of this cleanser. It even does a good job at removing your makeup (still best to double cleanse, though!). This light and airy foam cleanser feels like it isn’t doing much when I’m washing my face, but the result is clean, clear and hydrated skin. It reaches deep into pores to remove dirt and impurities without compromising the skin’s natural moisture barrier. The gentle and soothing face wash is perfect for sensitive skin.

The E45 Hydrating Face Serum

The E45 Hydrating Face Serum provides instant hydration and locks in moisture for 48 hours. Its superpower is its clinically proven, triple moisturising complex which includes microalgae to protect skin from drying out in icy winters and dehydrating summers. After application my skin feels hydrated and soothed. This serum is a must for dry, sensitive skin.

The E45 Lips & Dry Spots Balm

                      

The product that I was least excited about, turned out to be my favourite. I thought I would be underwhelmed by the lip and dry skin balm, because ‘a balm is a balm’… I was very wrong. This balm is extremely thick which means it stays put much longer than your average balm. My lips are very dry all year round, and I wake up most mornings with flakiness. When I apply the balm at night before bed, I wake up with hydrated, smooth, supple lips. It’s amazing. It also works so much better than any other balm or barrier cream in my cavalry when winter wreaks havoc. The teenager has been struggling with dry patches on her forehead and her eye lids. This beauty provides instant relief and care. Full marks, E45.

The NEW E45 face care product range is available from selected independent pharmacies, Clicks and Dis-Chem stores. The range is also available from Takealot. For more information, visit E45 and join the conversations on Facebook, YouTube, Tik Tok and Instagram.

Here’s to healthy, hydrated skin.
